Signs and Scenes of Spring in Jerusalem

Spring.

The Hebrew month of Nissan started on Shabbat,

and the signs and scenes of spring are visible on

and off the Jerusalem, Israel, streets.

I am sorry I missed a Spring Fair at Hansen House,

but a nearby park is being replanted this spring,

with the Jerusalem Theater in the background.

Flowers are growing on trees,

green growing on house abandoned Jerusalem Israel

while greens are taking over this abandoned structure.

Look up and see purple,

look down and see red,

 and the colorful Bird-of-paradise is always a favorite.

But not all the color was from nature.
